In Paris, only half of the vehicles are allowed on the road today and tomorrow (and ? ? ?) - even or odd plates. And some people are still bitching about it. s19.postimg.cc/h7tzjt3yr/pollution.jpg |

Yes, I heard about that on the news today. Today here in Toulouse the weather was beautiful and sunny and with no wind. I went for a walk to the top of a hill and you could see the purple haze just hanging over the city and in the near distance. The Pyrenees were invisible, whereas they should be visible on what looked like a clear day.

All I know is that I'm having a lot of trouble breathing, even at 6 AM when I walk the dog.
It does get much worse around noon, so I've been staying inside.

Another day of alternating license plate driving today -- and all public transportation free of charge.

Supposedly the pollution is high in Toulouse these days too but I don't really notice it because the sky is blue. Went for a walk to the top of a hill yesterday and realized that what seemed to be fog was in fact pollution. Usually it's not too bad in Toulouse because it is often windy.

I was listening to a woman from Delhi on the radio. She was saying that she used to look at all of the stars in the sky when she was a little girl, but all of the stars disappeared about 20 years ago. But after two days of covid lockdown, the stars came back to the sky. A whole generation of children saw stars for the first time in their life. Of course, now they are gone again.
